That was when we first saw Visual Land. Some of you may recognize their involvement in our forums, passing along information about the tablets, and Visual Land has even supplied us with firmware so people who fall outside of warranty can recover their tablets when there is a problem. At CES Visual Land mentioned that their Prestige line (then unreleased) would include 7, 8, and 10 inch models. Since then, there has been a ‘wait and see’ stance on the 8 inch model, but we have already reviewed their Prestige 7 and now have the 10 inch model in our hands.

Well, Visual Land has provided me with a Prestige 10, and I have some videos (which you can see by clicking on the headings) to give you the chance to see it before you make your purchasing decision.

Hardware:
The Prestige 10 makes some improvements over the Prestige 7 that are quite welcome. The addition of Bluetooth is quite splendid, and means that a bluetooth headset can be used natively for any type of video conferenceing you have planned.

Much interest was generated recently by projects that put android on your television, whether in the form of a dongle, or a gaming console. With the Prestige 10′s hardware, it certainly trumps the dongles, and makes for a more versitile package than the console: Consider attaching a keyboard, and a mouse to the Prestige 10, and running the HDMI out to your television: There is your Dongle’s functionality. Throw in a Bluetooth controller, and that is a gaming console, and you still have a tablet to use when you need to take your setup on the road. Having the ability to use 2 USB devices, output HD video, and throw in Bluetooth connectivity makes this a powerful package.

Software:
The Prestige 10 is running Andriod 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, and has Visual Land’s custom launcher. We got a look at this launcher back in January of this year, and it looks just as it did then, complete with 7 specialized homescreens. If that just is not your cup of tea, then it is possible to change it. For those of you unfamiliar with Android 4.0 it has many improvements over the previous versions of android, and the video that is linked in the ‘Software’ heading should give you a better idea of what Android 4.0 looks like.

Battery Life:
The Prestige 10 is one of the few tablets that I have experienced that lives up to its advertised battery life. The press release stated “Up to 8 hours continuous (up to 5 days standby)” I was able to get 5.5 days standby, and by the 8 hour mark, I still had some battery left to go. I suspect that I could even get longer if I had turned on airplane mode, and turned down the screen brightness. I imagine that 8 hours will not be the maximum on the battery, but near the average of a days usage.
One of the most frequent critiques that I hear about android is its battery life in comparison to apple’s iOfferings. Although this will not dethrone the iPad in its battery usage, the Prestige 10 is where android devices SHOULD be.

Final Thoughts:
This Prestige 10 is a leap forward in many respects for Visual Land. The ten inch tablet, being offered at a very reasonable price (approx $200 usd) combined with Visual Land’s very cordial attitude towards the development community mean that this tablet is a great purchase with a slew of great features, at a hard-to-beat price. I have been most pleased with the Prestige 10 and at the price point at which it is being offered, I see little reason to purchase a different 10 inch tablet.

About Macktion -
I am just a college student, attending university in the hopes of drilling teeth one day. I got A+ certified at the age of 14 and have been fixing computers ever since. I have a wonderful wife who also web develops, so my apartment is perhaps one of the nerdiest places you can imagine (I have the periodic table shower curtain to prove it too).

I purchased a regular cover for a 10 tablet, but it was to small.
The 10 is about 11.5 inch4es long and 6.5 inches wide, so be careful and take it to the store or make sure you get one large enough if you order on the www.

I have the Visual Land Prestige 10.
It is rooted but I am trying to find a rom(s) and firmware for it.
I see you stated above that you have been supplied the firmware for it, but dont see a link to it.
Can you help with that as well?

Just bought the tablet, im inpressed; however, i CANT get a wifi signal???? Infact it wont let me add a device, i click on and it thinks, then goes right back to off position? How do i fix this? I love the tablet, just its useless without the web!

Must have got yours from HSN. Bought one for my wife but it got here with a busted screen. They had me to send it back for a replacement and we got it in less that a week. Then they billed us for 2 tablets saying we never sent the busted one back. A dozen or so of phone calls and they say they took care of it. We waiting to see. Good Luck.

Its like you read my mind! You seem to know a lot about
this, like you wrote the book in it or something.
I think that you can do with some pics to drive the message
home a little bit, but other than that, this is magnificent blog.
A fantastic read. I’ll certainly be back.

the prestige 10 is an internet device but it doesn’t act like one. it runs too slow, period! I can’t even find a fix to this problem. others having the same problem. who paid you 14 yr. old for your comments. waste of money so far!!!!!!!!!!

Howdy exceptional website! Does running a blog such as this take a lot of work?
I have virtually no knowledge of programming however I was hoping to start my own blog in the near future.
Anyways, should you have any ideas or tips for new blog
owners please share. I understand this is off topic however
I just needed to ask. Appreciate it!

Its like you learn my thoughts! You seem to understand a lot approximately this, like you wrote the ebook in it
or something. I think that you simply could do
with a few % to force the message house a bit, but instead of that, this is fantastic blog. A fantastic read. I will definitely be back.

I think this is among the most significant info for me.
And i’m glad reading your article. But wanna remark on some general things, The web site style is wonderful, the articles is really great : D. Good job, cheers

My Visual Land 10″Android 4.0 ice cream, stopped working after 60 days. Would not boot up to start. Its like it just died from (old) age. Thank heavens, I had a 2 yr contract. Cost me $28.00, but I’m glad I bought it. Walmart gave me back the cost of this dud, plus tax.]
Would not buy another Visual Land product.

We absolutely love your blog and find most of your post’s to be just what I’m looking
for. Does one offer guest writers to write content to suit your needs?
I wouldn’t mind writing a post or elaborating on many of the subjects you write concerning here. Again, awesome web site!

Appreciating the time and effort you put into your site and in depth information you provide.
It’s good to come across a blog every once in a while that isn’t the
same outdated rehashed material. Wonderful read! I’ve bookmarked your site and I’m including your
RSS feeds to my Google account.

I almost never leave comments, but i did some searching and wound
up here Visual Land Prestige 10 Review – Welcome to the tabletroms.
com development community. And I actually do have 2
questions for you if it’s allright. Could it be simply me or does it look as if like a few of the comments appear as if they are written by brain dead folks? And, if you are writing on additional online sites, I would like to keep up with anything new you have to post. Could you make a list of every one of your social pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this website. It’s simple, yet effective.
A lot of times it’s difficult to get that “perfect balance” between superb usability and visual appearance. I must say you have done a excellent job with this. Additionally, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Safari. Excellent Blog!

Hey! Someone in my Facebook group shared this website with us so
I came to check it out. I’m definitely loving the information. I’m book-marking and
will be tweeting this to my followers! Wonderful blog and outstanding design.

Hi there, There’s no doubt that your web site could be having internet browser compatibility issues. When I take a look at your site in Safari, it looks fine however, if opening in I.E., it has some overlapping issues. I just wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Other than that, wonderful site!

Unquestionably believe that which you said. Your favorite
reason appeared to be on the net the easiest thing to be aware
of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people
consider worries that they just do not know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top
and also defined out the whole thing without having side effect , people can take a signal.
Will likely be back to get more. Thanks

I have had one for 3 days now. Some things work, some things don’t. Biggest frustration is the number of reboots when doing what I thought were fairly simple tasks on the browser. Many of the same apps on my Android phone do not run on the Visual Land 10 tablet. I have contacted tech support and if they cannot give some good reasons for the poor performance, I will return it.

We are having a major problem opening up any site, it takes many many minutes, sometimes 10 to 15 to get to anything. Just purchased this in June and it was a gift for my granddaughter. Any ideas, my partner is a software engineer and he cannot figure out why this is happening.

Can someone tell me for sure that Adobe Flash player is supported for sure by this device. I need to download apps to view Flash content in Sumsung 10.1 which is not a great experience with limitation of not being able to see full screen

I have a Visual Land Prestige 10 and the battery does not hold a charge for 8 hours nor for 5 days. While mine is shut down the battery goes dead after 2 days if I am lucky. Other than that, I really like all of the features. If anyone can tell me what can be done to extend the battery life would be super. Thanks

I just opened my new Prestige 10 tablet I had ordered from Amazon. Was reading the guide book that is loaded on the device, and it froze on pg 24. Nothing at all happens. Can’t turn it off or anything. Argh! Should have just read the booklet that came with it. Any suggestions at all?

I purchased the 10″ Prestige tablet last spring. At first it seemed to work fairly well, but after a few days it began barely registering a signal even when next to the router, the pages load at a snails pace and now even things done offline are incredibly slow. The tablet is basically useless like this. If anyone knows what could be causing this let me know please. I tried it at my daughters house and got the same result. If it would work most everyone says it does that would be great! All my other wireless devices work well, so it’s not my network or my daughter’s.

You have to be careful here as the sizing isn’t consistent amongst manufacturers.
You wouldn’t want anything within your bag poking you in the back, why would
you think your dog would. Human beings would have a greater chance
at a longer lifespan if the world’s air and water were cleaner and free of chemicals.

An interesting discussion is worth comment. I do believe that
you should write more on this subject matter, it might not be a taboo matter but usually people do not talk about
these topics. To the next! Best wishes!!

The power button on my VL prestige 10 tablet stopped working, I discovered that after charging it completely it can be turned on by pressing the small reset button located on the side by the ports,sometimes pressing the power button and volume down at the same time, and if kept charged, I can changed the sleep setting to “never” and use it normally. I put it to sleep by changing sleep setting and waiting for it to go into sleep mode indipendently, and wake it by inserting the power cable (with cord already plugged into the wall outlet) into charger port momentaraly. This is a depressing and timely alternate powering up process, due to the fact that it keeps being aloud to run completely out of power by my daughter (grrr) and has to be fully charged again before it will come back on by repeating the steps above. Any advice on remapping the buttons would be greatly appriciated. Pls help!

Hey Jim, just thought I’d ask if you clean the cashe frequently, and do you have an SD card inserted if not, it helps, expecially if its rooted and apps can be move to SD. Also I found it helps to install (and use), lol, a simple or faster launcher like Nova, or FTL launcher found for free at play store or mobile 1 market, getjar has never worked right for me, I prefer mobile 1, and avg history and cashe cleaner is an affeciant app for gaining speed. Also consider an efficant web browser like UC Browser. I hope this info helps, if not, sorry to hear, and hope you get the info you need.
